Hello Gators!
I am thrilled to announce that Gator Tales is getting a
fresh new look! We’re trying out new designs to enhance
your experience, while retaining the key elements that
connect together all Arrowmen of Aal-Pa-Tah Lodge.
Stay tuned as we move forward with these exciting new
changes!
For those new here, welcome! Gator Tales is the official
monthly newsletter of Aal-Pa-Tah Lodge, published in the
middle of each month, aimed at connecting you with the
latest lodge news, events, and updates!
If you have any feedback, suggestions, or ideas, please
feel free to let me know! All feedback is welcome, and I
would love to know what you want to see in Gator Tales!
Yours in Brotherhood,
Marketing & Publications Chair

OA Night at
Summer Camp
OA Night at
Summer Camp
What are OA Nights?
OA nights are held each Wednesday during
summer camp at Tanah Keeta Scout
Reservation, and are aimed at recognizing all
that the OA does! They serve as a great way
to introduce scouts to the OA, show them
what we do, and recognize scouts who best
exemplify the Scout Oath and Law in their
daily lives. Similar OA days/nights are held at
scouting reservations all across America!
How Can I Help?
Every Wednesday of summer camp on June
19th and June 26th, immerse yourself in the
spirit of the OA. We're calling all members to
lend a hand from 6-9pm each night, assisting
with hosting carnival games and serving
cracker barrel.
What if I Can’t Make
It?
That’s ok! Don't forget to wear your Sash
and bring your Aal-Pa-Tah pride when
visiting other summer camps this season,
as many camps will also be hosting their
own OA day/night. It's a time to celebrate
unity, service, and brotherhood; no matter
where you are!
